MOBO award winning band N-Dubz have been confirmed to play in the Isle of Man this summer.
The British hip hop group from London will play at the Villa Marina on Thursday, August 18.
N-Dubz is made up of Richard "Fazer" Rawson, Dino "Dappy" Contostavlos and the new X-Factor judge Tula "Tulisa" Contostavlos
The group have had eight top 40 hits on the UK Singles Chart including Playing With Fire, Strong Again and I Need You.
They have also picked up five MOBO Awards during their time together – the most recent last year for Best Song for Playing With Fire.
David Cretney MHK, Community, Culture and Leisure Minister, said: "I am delighted to confirm another major name in British music is to appear at the Villa Marina.
"Ensuring that we offer music to a wide range of tastes is important to the Villa Marina and, with lots of indie and rock music already confirmed, N-Dubz are a hugely popular group that appeal to a different market segment.
"Now that group member Tulisa has been confirmed as a judge on the X-Factor their popularity is sure to increase even more and this will be a great chance to see one of the UK's best hip hop groups live at the Villa Marina."
Tickets for N-Dubz are on sale now priced at £36. They are available from the ticket hotline on 01624 600555, online at www.villagaiety.com or from the Welcome Centre at the Sea Terminal in Douglas.
